Hi folks,

I never filled my Newton that much. The internal store had very few
KB free and I was getting a lot of notices saying that it was full. I
continued nevertheless what I was doing (writing a modem script
actually) and finally, I got -10606's (Object not found).
The Extras drawer refused to open. I had to reboot, and then the
Newton restarted as soon as the light bulb appeared.
The only way was a brain wipe. Fortunately, my last backup was done
on Thursday, during at the end of my last notes taking session.

Paul
